Brixton Baby (Ft. MPHO) Lyrics

[Chorus]
I come from Brixton, I come from Brixton baby
Born and raised, you never see, still amaze me
I come from Brixton baby
I come from Brixton

[Verse 1: Ty]
Born and raised from the days when it wasn’t safe to gaze
Cause some people had their ways (Brixton)
Reggae music was the heartbeat
Loud music hear the car beat
Showper[?] gripping angels in their push chairs
Head ties, head scarves, different footwear (Brixton)
Blue jeans is the uniform
Pretty girls walking ‘round like unicorns
Unaware of the beauty
Getting judged by the chest or the size of their booty
We are many colors, cultures and others
We don’t all mix but we blend with each other
In this funny little matrix we call home
Where you learn to really watch your tone
Or guard your phone
The relationship with popo is so-so
God help you with your coco, it’s loco

[Chorus]
I come from Brixton, I come from Brixton baby
Born and raised, you never see, still amaze me
Phase one, phase two, or phase three

[Verse 2: Ty]
You’re either rich or struggling gracefully
In a place far from make-believe
Hair braids and we
Maybe it’s maybelline
Hard nights for the days between
There is a sunshine built with us
In the faces of those still with us
Take-away plus destiny delivers
Here today, gone tomorrow many rivers
Folks cuttin’ coconuts in the summer
Watch your back, youths might do a runner
Run up on you doing dumb shit or dumber
Might catch a black eye from your mama
Families of all shapes or sizes
Wearing intricate but great disguises
Well aware of how grey the sky is
Watch yourself, we don’t play surprise surprises

[Chorus]
I come from Brixton, I come from Brixton baby
Born and raised, you never see, still amaze me
Phase one, phase two, or phase three
I come from Brixton, I come from Brixton baby
Born and raised, you never see, still amaze me
I come from Brixton baby

[Verse 3: MPHO]
African made, Brixton raised
So I’m still a little feisty, South London baby
Though this gift will take me to travel afar
Took me out the ends but begins in my heart
See y’all been around the world and not come back
Though you see me in the village like the new bougie black
It’s this village that raised me
It just keeps on changin’
And I’m trying to keep up with this race I’m racin’
Fighting to grow so we don’t get stuck
And my mom will let you know that it was more than luck
Cause the streets do call and some do fall
But we rise up to do it for love
Keep eyes up, cause it comes from above
And when we don’t have a lot
You know the love is enough
I do it for you, I do it for me
I do it cause we, Brixton baby

[Chorus]
I come from Brixton, I come from Brixton baby
Born and raised, you never see, still amaze me
Phase one, phase two, or phase three
I come from Brixton
I come from Brixton baby
Born and raised, you never see, still amaze me
I come from Brixton baby
I come from Brixton
